I recently discovered that on almost a nightly basis since I was a very young boy I have been leaving my body in what I discovered 8 or 9 years ago is called "Astral Projection" or "Out of Body Experiences". These have been something that have happened so frequently that until just recently I didn't understand what was occurring every night. I have had several OBE's that I remember distinctly and that I was fully awake for. The ones that I have almost nightly all occur while sleeping. The ones that I was awake for I was able to induce with my own mind and through simple prayer. I always have had an innate sense that these are sacred and special experiences. I have only shared with my wife that I have this gift and have never tried to play with it in any way except for when the spirit allowed me to go out. I learned at some point that these can be dangerous if your spirit isn't in a "safe" place and if you haven't received approval from angels or the spirit. I learned just a few months ago that evil spirits can attempt to posses your body if your own spirit is not in it. This taught me why there is danger in leaving your body and why angels need to be near for these experiences.

The OBE's that I induced were particularly potent to my mind, memory, spirit, and body. I felt presence of a passed away brother every time. I would cause my body to begin to vibrate and then I would simply...separate. I would "float" around my bedroom watching myself cry extremely hard. Some of this crying was mourning and some of it was extremely happy. Each time these occurred it was incredibly therapeutic to my mind and soul. I would become more confident and feel safer. Having lost my dad at a young age, this was something that I craved deeply. These experiences were purifying and brought perfect clarity to my spiritual mind. Each time I returned to my body the clarity quickly became muddled. I now feel that I was speaking with angels and seeing things as spirits only can and was able to receive further light and knowledge as a result.

The OBE's that I have had nightly since this time are incredible. I had know idea what they were till now. Most mornings I wake up feeling pure and renewed in an almost impossibly amazing way. I feel like a new person each day and feel protected and rejuvenated. My spirit feels powerful and without pride. I feel that I can achieve anything. When I was young I did not give the credit for this feeling to God but I did as I aged.I go to sleep and my body would almost instantaneously separate from my spirit. I instantly fall into an OBE. As I mentioned before, I PREVIOUSLY had no idea that these were OBE's until recently. I begin to fall into a peaceful state where I feel entirely peaceful and open. My spirit is released and I usually seem to watch over my wife and kids. I also mourn great atrocities (sins) in the lives of my family members and my self. I didn't realize until recently that I was open to knowledge of things in these "Visions" that my body wasn't privy to. When I awake in the mornings I always feel as if I know so much in very extreme deep ways. I feel an ultimate but humble understanding. This quickly leaves my spirit as I get into my day but still provides wonderful peace. My spirit has fallen into the habit of wanting sleep very badly (in healthy ways) because of the further light and knowledge that brings perfect peace.

Over time the gift to induce one of these experiences in full consciousness was lost because of youthful indiscretions that prevented spiritual gifts from remaining and being active. I didn't know at that time that it was a gift or why it had left. though I did know that it was sacred.

I had no idea until 2 days ago, when I had a particularly powerful OBE that I was fully awake for, that I had been having these OBE's virtually every night for 15 years. This particular OBE replicated the ones that I induced as a young man. It also fully and completely was manifested exactly the same as all of the ones that have occurred nightly since as long as I can remember. I went into a spirit realm of angels and perfect peace. But it didn't start this way. It began with an experience I can only describe as what I envision Joseph Smith felt just prior his first vision of the Father and the Son. I was attacked by evil on all sides and felt if I was falling into a deep dark hole that I could never climb from. All my sins were very clear to me and I felt as if I didn't deserve anything good ever again. I new that this was wrong immediately. I instantly began praying for safety and bringing Christ to my mind. (At first, my wife came to my mind. This I think is because I have at times struggled between putting her and the Lord first.) All of the sudden in the darkness a small particle of light broke through and quickly became larger. Christ came towards me with a very concerned but loving look in His eye and as I chose Him as my Master, Him and I simultaneously commanded the darkness to disperse. Which it did without argument. From this point on in my OBE, Vision, or whatever you want to call it (I will refer to it as a vision from here on out) I was entirely free from all evil, temptation, or sin. I was completely free of the Fallen State of my body.

I began to see in perfect understanding the fallen state we are all in and how little our mortal minds and bodies understand. Most of the world, particularly America, act in extremely possessed ways without ever knowing it. This is particularly prevalent in the Church but mostly because we have access to Further Light and Knowledge and we simply do not partake of it. Satan is 1000 times more adept at tricking us than we even know. I saw my wife and my sister as well as my children. They were all safe. My kids were particularly safe and protected 24/7 by angels that are from our family. My father, grandmothers, brother, and cousin were there. I didn't get to communicate with them but knew they were protecting my children. I couldn't see into my sisters understandings of life or her experience that brought her to where she was. I think this is because she is not in my immediate family. I have the power to receive Visions and revelation for MY family but not my extended family..?? My wife on the other hand I could see with extreme clarity. She has an extremely refined spirit and knows things that are of such a sacred nature I can not repeat them here. Some of these we discussed and some I "heard". Some of these that I heard I no longer remember. My wife is also hurting tremendously. Her desire is one of extreme Charity. She wants deep truth to come to all people and sees the inconsistencies of hypocrisies with ease. Her gift of discernment is powerful. She can see how easily people can get out of Satan's traps but are simply refusing to let life be hard (refining) and are choosing to allow themselves to live in mediocrity and sin. This again, is very prevalent in the church.

I was also able to see much of myself and began to physically (I watched my body and watched my wife watch me) laugh and cry without stopping. I felt perfect emotion. I discovered that God does not get angry in any sinful ways because he has the power to understand all emotions all at once and accept them all as good and reasonable and with importance. This is a skill that heavenly beings also have. I do not know if there were angels from different levels of righteousness around me though I presume that there were. I reached such depths of happiness, sadness, sorrow, and wonder that I knew I was feeling things to their fullest extent. The feelings and emotions were powerful and still bring me to tears. I didn't feel any fear or anxiety besides at the beginning when evil was present.

I wandered in my Vision around the house and continued to watch over my wife and children as I always do each night in my other OBE's.

It took me what felt like weeks and months to leave my vision. Though while I was in the Vision I never felt hurried or seemed aware that there might be time waiting for me somewhere. I knew that time existed with my body but since the beginning of my Vision time had ceased to exist. The feeling of it being a "long time" came to me after I exited my vision.

The emotions that I felt in my Vision were extremely potent and full as I stated above. The experiences with my Savior and my Wife were particularly of interest to me.

In my Vision I became aware that evil is everywhere but is coming in new and fuller ways today as more and more people accept evil influences. I felt that the earth is soon going to be cleansed. I also felt that this cleansing is coming soon. I had the forceful revelation that my family requires my protection to successfully fight through the storms that will come VERY soon.

There are a lot more details to this vision that I have forgotten, intentionally with held because of their sacred nature, not added because of the time consuming nature (I could type all night about the things I saw), or that simply have not been reminded to me by the Spirit for whatever reason while I have typed. I feel that this narration is only an extremely small part of all I saw.

I learned for the first time in my life that I am an extremely important person to God. I was able to see this finally. I became aware that my gift is extremely rare in its frequency and that I have this gift for a reason. This gift relates somehow to the pureness of the priesthood that is soon to come. I also learned that I was extremely vital to God's efforts pre-mortally and remain so mortally. I do not think this means that I was any more special than another. Only vital. I realized that my gifts are powerful and can only be manifest fully in consistent and complete righteousness that relates somehow to my C&E.

I type these things and the details I included not to be flippant or to share something sacred lightly. I share this because I believe it is a warning to all of us but of course applies particularly to me and my family. I do not want someone else to "interpret" what some of this could mean for me. These kind of things are meant to be solved and understood over time and step by step. I realize the sacred nature of this kind of topic. From my reading on this site I believe that noone will post flippantly or without deep thought and prayer and experience or questions.

My questions:

Has anyone else had recent strong revelation of the "impending doom" within and outside the church?

Has anyone else experienced Visions in the form of OBE's?

Is it unique to have these since such a young age? Though i wasn't allowed to be aware of them until I was much older.

Does anything with in my experience open your mind to new truths that can be posted here?

What are your thoughts regarding the lack of anger, fear, anxiety, etc in the eternal realms?

What are your thoughts regarding the fact that emotions are completely understood in Heaven and are there for all completely good and joy inducing?

Does anyone else voluntarily leave their body?

If so, what do you do to ensure the safety of your physical vessel while you are out?

What is the significance of frequent visions?

What are your perceptions of the timeless state of life outside of the mortal realm?

Thank You All,

Binyamin

_Fortunate_
